Bombers Full Cheek Happy Tongue Show Jumping Bit
The Fulmer cheekpiece will have the same effect as the traditional Eggbutt, as it will prevent most pinching on the sides of the mouth. The extended pins above and below the bit prevent the bit being pulled through the mouth and have the effect of guiding the horse's head, which is great for schooling and training purposes. As with the Eggbutt, the release is slower than the loose ring and also introduces light poll pressure.
The Happy Tongue is a solid mouthpiece uniquely ported to give maximum tongue relief. The standard Happy Tongue is curved to be softer on the bars and slow in applying tongue pressure. This mouthpiece is made from blue sweet iron, meaning it is warm and sweet, helps bit acceptance, oxidizes easily, and encourages salivation. Please note, the blue color will fade with use, but the sweet taste will not.
This is a great bit to start with if your horse is shaking its horse, sticking its tongue out, sucking its tongue back resulting in a coughing noise, trying to put its tongue over the bit, going behind the bit to avoid contact, or snatching the reins forward and down. The rider will know immediately if this bit will work as the horse will finally begin to work into the bit and accept the contact. Changing the cheekpieces would then allow the rider to adjust the level of control.
